    • Verse 1
    There 
    once 
    was 
    a musical troupe, 

    a 
    pickin' 
    singin' 
    folk group. 

    They 
    sang 
    the mountain 
    bal
    lads 
    and 

    the folk songs 
    from 
    our land. 

    They 
    was 
    long gone 
    musical ability, 

    folks 
    thought they 
    would go 
    far. 

    But polit
    ical 
    incompatib
    ility 

    led 
    to their down
    fall. 

    Oh, 
    the 
    one on 
    the right was 
    on 
    the left, 

    and the 
    one in 
    the middle was 
    on 
    the right, 

    and 
    the one on 
    the left was 
    in 
    the 
    middle, 

    and the guy in 
    the rear 
    was 
    a 

    Methodist. 

    This 
    musical 
    aggravation 
    tore 
    the 
    entire na
    tion, 

    singing traditional 
    ballads 
    and folk 
    songs 
    from 
    our 
    land. 

    They 
    performed 
    with 
    great virtuosity 

    and 
    soon for 
    all the 
    rage 

    But 
    polit
    ical 
    animos
    ity 

    prevailed 
    upon this 
    stage 

    Well, 
    the 
    one on 
    the right was 
    on 
    the left and 

    the 
    one in 
    the middle was 
    on 
    the right 

    And 
    the one on 
    the left was 
    in 

    the middle and 
    the 
    guy in 
    the rear 

    Borne 
    his driver's 
    license 

    Well, 
    the clointine 
    had ascended 

    on 
    as
    phalt from 
    the 
    crowd 

    As 
    thou
    sands 
    there was 
    gathered to 

    hear 
    the folk songs 
    from 
    our 
    land 

    But 
    they 
    took their 
    politics 
    seriously 

    that 
    night at 
    the concert 
    hall 

    As 
    the 
    audience 
    watched deliri
    ously, 

    they 
    had 
    a free -for 
    -all 

    Oh, 
    the 
    one on 
    the right was 

    on 
    the bomb 

    And the 
    one in 
    the middle was 
    on 
    the top 

    And 
    the one on 
    the left got 
    a 
    broken pivot 

    And 
    the 
    guy in 
    his rear 

    Said, 
    where is 

    Meryl? 

    Now 
    this should 
    be a 
    lesson 

    If 
    you 
    plan to 
    start up 
    a group 

    Don't 
    go 
    mixing 
    polit
    ics 

    With 
    the folk songs 
    from our 
    land 

    Just 
    work on 
    harmony 
    and diction 

    Play 
    the 
    banjo 
    well 

    If 
    you 
    have political 
    ambi
    tions 

    Keep 
    him 
    to your
    self. 

    Now 
    the 
    one on 
    the left, 

    Forks in 
    the back, 

    And the 
    one on 
    the middle, 

    He 
    drives a 
    truck, 

    And the 
    one on 
    the right, 

    An all 
    -night 

    DJ, 

    And the 
    guy in 
    the rear. 

    Hey, 
    he 
    got drafted.

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
